Advocate columnist Smiley Anders center stage and partially disrobed during rehearsal for Gridiron 2014.

Every year at around this time, with lawmakers just back in Baton Rouge for the legislative session, the capitol press corps makes fun of state politicians — and themselves — with a bit of song and dance.

The 63rd annual Gridiron show is on at the American Legion March 28 and March 29. Doors open at 6:30, and the show starts at 7:30. For reservations, email gridironshowbr@yahoo.com or call 225-337-1169.
